Gene (The Gentle Kind)

God forbid some people just be a bit shorter and younger looking. It's a compliment tbh, they're just jealous of our youth. Take it with pride lmao

It's so inconsistent tho, I'm either 26, 19, 37, or 15 even. And this is with the beard so idek I'm screwed either way

My beard is my shield. With it, I look my age (sometimes), without it, I revert back 10 years

For tricking me, I shall curse you with this video I found 3 years ago

Biblically accurate angel is so... Biblically accurate I like it. From a distance, it's gonna hurt me lmao

That hot dog reminds me of a character that would be in one of those adult swim shows. He's got mustard laser eyes, that's his schtick lol

Yeah the bottom two are my OCs, Pink one is Anastasia, a blog writer, the one you like is Pauline. I guess you could call her a sort of exorcist, but in a collector kind of way, almost like a pokemon trainer or the digimon kids (digidestined?)

That's one (of many) things I like about art. Everyone can see things in a different way and it adds to the discussion and appreciation of the piece and style artists go for

Thanks! It's one of my OCs. Ive been practicing doing more black and white drawings so I figured I'd give it a shot with her and that ghost. Honestly I like drawing manga style more than coloring

The colors you use on your drawings have a mix of life, as well as a bit of darkness, like a more serious undertone in parts. It's a nice combo

Thanks! I try to keep it pretty straightforward to focus on volume
More than too much detail

Thanks! Gotta do your boy justice lol

I like how you pose your drawings. It really adds to each character. The colors are well chosen too. Good job

Your art is adorable! The colors really pop and the expressions sell the whole thing. Just wonderful

Great job on 200+ followers.

Well I'm Gene, I draw anime style art and simply enjoy engaging with people and their creations. Hope we get along and I hope you enjoy my art!

I really like the art of the horned woman with the shamisen. Feels soft and elegant

Quote how you draw women 💖

Oh yeah I did a couple for art fight, but I only really did it in 2020 and barely 2021, kinda dropped it since

That's good. I've been using clip studio since 2018. It took a sec to get used to cause there's so much at once. But once you find what works, it's pretty straightforward. And once you get the basics, if you think of something you'd want, people have found the answer online somewhere. It's handy

OC reference sheets for Anastasia

OC reference sheet for Nucleryxs

OC reference sheet for Iris

OC reference sheet for Marigold

It's pretty good having reference sheets for your characters. Do you have any sheets for your OCs? And how detailed do you go?

Honestly that's always the hard part. Considering there's so many parts to it, I'd definitely charge a bit more than a normal full body, especially if you're gonna render the art and add expressions and then the extra back and accessory details. Idk what your prices look like but that's what I think

A recent OC, Anastasia

A Fakemon OC, Nucleryxs

A kid student OC, Marigold

A Spirit OC, Jinks

I think rendering either the full body or one or two Expressions would be good. Not both tho. It'd be good for the person to tell what would be good colors to work with without shading. I haven't started selling yet, but these are what I'd do to start. It's really up to you how you'd go about it.

Well this is a suggestion, but I wouldn't add the chibi, in fact, I'd have a whole different commission option specific for chibis. It would broaden your options as far as sales. Then replace it with one more expression. The back and more details can work as extras.

It's hard to say. How hard are you gonna go with it? Front and back? Add expressions? Add details to accessories? Little comments about each? Color palette? You're arts good, and depending on how much want to add to the sheet, you could charge a good amount. Don't low ball tho that's a lot of effort

Valentine's Day is soon. And there's many kinds of love, including self love.

"Be yourself, try your best, and don't let anything hold you back. Spread that happiness with others and little by little, the world will be a better place!"

This seems like a really interesting event. What kind of stuff did you learn from it?

She'd love to hear that. Thanks!

Heh... You mean, the Chaos Emeralds?

But seriously, very beautiful

A new OC, Anastasia. She's a carefree and excitable person. Someone who lives modestly despite their appearance, she enjoys stories and likes to write in her spare time.

Got a new OC to share. Someone who expresses themselves without hesitation. Here's Anastasia, she stands out quite a bit, but she doesn't mind, as long as don't get overbearing at least 👀

Very nice job. Everything look so clean here

Actually on a side note, I was wondering, what version of Mewtwo's battle theme do you prefer? X and Y, Let's Go, or Stadium?

Personally I really like the let's go battle remix the most and I wish they'd do a remix for the stadium theme one of these days. X and Y is fine too
